We hold state and national records for the largest jury verdicts in numerous categories. Several of our lawyers have been profiled in such national publications as Forbes, Time Magazine, BusinessWeek, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The National Law Journal, The ABA Journal, and Lawyers Weekly USA. We have also appeared nationally on Good Morning America, 60 Minutes, The O’Reilly Factor, CNN, Fox, ABC Evening News, CBS Evening News, NBC Evening News, and National Public Radio among others.

We have a national reputation for being at the forefront of Consumer Litigation. In keeping with this, we publish a monthly consumer news report – The Jere Beasley Report – that goes to over 38,000 households.

While we have attorneys licensed to practice law in 19 states we have associate attorneys to work with us in every other state, allowing us to handle cases from anywhere in the country. Because of this, we have been able to successfully litigate cases all over the country.
